Howard Dow To Assume New Duties on Dec. 1 Much to the deep regret of the members of St. Michael's Episcopal church, was the announcement given by the Rev. D. Howard Dow, rector of the church for the past fourteen and a half years, that he had been appointed rector of St. Mary's-by-the-Sea, Pacific Grove, Calif., and that he would assume his new duties on December 1. During his rectorship here, St. Michael's church has made a decided growth in many ways, mainly in the church school, the auxiliary orangizations and musical groups as well as the steady growth of the church membership. His new church is in the San Francisco diocese and is an important parish in that area. Recently the church in Monterey has been merged with St. Mary's church. He and his family will be greatly missed by his parishioners and the community at large. Active in the work of the American Red Cross when he served as chairman of the Anaheim chapter as well as a large number of other community activities are only a small part of his services to this city. He was one of the members of the committee responsible for the success of music week in Anaheim and through his untiring efforts was responsible for the Pageant association that presented Moral Courage By GEORGE S BENSON President of Harding College Searcy, Arkansas ONLY three dangers seem big enough to threaten America's direct course to post-war prosperity. They are (1) scarcity of capital, (2) loss of foreign markets and (3) government bungling in matters of business. Two previous chapters of "Looking Ahead" discussed the first two obstacles. Either of them could wreck America's hope of world leadership; both can be avoided. The courage of our people to brave the first two hazards depends on knowing what government means to do about the third By investing the cost of six months of war, industry can create the 7 to 10 million new jobs needed. American workers can make these jobs pay good wages and returns on the investment. Industry and labor can succeed with favorable government regulations. Tax Relief STALLING and delay at the war's end may, in three ways, stop all progress of labor and industry back toward prosperity. Indeed one obstruction can keep recovery from even starting, might wreck Private Enterprise completely. Taxation is the deadly tool. No new laws are necessary. Many a small industrial plant will never turn a wheel after the emergency until present tax laws are changed. A factory in Texas works 150 men. I know the owner. His taxes ran $1,000 a day last year, about the same as his pay-roll. He manages today because the governmen takes his complete no risks to run, no selling After the war it will be due Uncertain demands, sure costs, competition to meet out tax relief he does not he can afford to take such revisions will come, but this delay. If work starts on tax bill after V-Day, it will year in the making and add business depression can der way in that time Sabat government's second fear move Many new-made Arms believe anything that injures employer helps them. Arms lence and vandalism should strained in peace-time as something else business can't wait for too long about government comp. The U. S. owns outright the nation's manufacturing and equipment. Will these into private ownership, or if supported by taxes, succeeds could make anything from valves to lightning rods and the employees of bankrupt petitors weeping in the street. The world's only free must stay free. No sane player would go to bat with strikes on him, and, by this token, America's rational men deserve an open state government policy on things: (1) taxation, (2) enforcement and (3) government competition. If government clear the track, industry come through. A scavenger hunt was enjoyed by about one hundred members of the Chi-Rho Clubs of Fullerton and Anaheim on Monday evening when the young people met at the St. Boniface hall on North Palm Street, before starting on their never-ending search. The homes of friends and members of the church were the target for the errands of the young people as the hunt progressed, being confined to the northwest section of the city. Upon their return to the hall, home with their missions fulfilled and others giving up in deep despair, they found refreshments of hot-dogs and pop awaiting them. Dancing concluded the evening of entertainment. Republican Women Attend Division Meet In Los Angeles Five Orange county women attended the Southern Division meeting of the California Council of Republican Women held at the lexandria hotel in Los Angeles last Friday.

Dwire, Anaheim, and Mrs. D. P. Longsdon of Garin Grove. The principal speaker for the afternoon session was Rupert Hughes, nationally known author. The morning session was taken up with officer and committee reports. Have your youngsters balked eating their Sunday nightowl of bread and milk? Maybe because the bread has lacked old remembered flavor. If your coaxing can cease because War Food Administration says our bread will soon return pre-war standards of both taste and quality with the addition of other milk content. Former Resident Of Anaheim Passes Mrs. Sarah Augusta Brooks, 90 years of age, a former resident of Anaheim from 1933 to 1943, passed away last Monday evening at her home in Fullerton. While living here she made her home with two daughters, Mrs. Minnie Dohn and Miss Jesse Brooks. Mrs. M. N. Pope of Berwyn, Md., is another daughter surviving with phosphorus deficiency in soil reduces the quality and yield of crops and forage, says the War Food Administration. If this essential mineral is not replaced by the application of available phosphates, the land gradually loses its fertility. Pasture and hay land, as well as land devoted to grain and other crops, requires fertilizing if it is to maintain peak production levels demanded by war, WFA points out. Phosphorus is removed from the soil both in the crops it produces and through erosion, which carries off the rich surface soil. At the same time, says WFA, a low available phosphorus content helps cause erosion because a good plant cover cannot be grown effectively on phosphorus-deficient land. Initial plantings of cover crops particularly need fertilizing. It has been found that superphosphate—the most widely used phosphate material—enables the more desirable, nutritious, and palatable legumes and grasses to crowd out poorer plants on pasture and hay land. Kentucky bluegrass and white clover, for example, largely eliminated poverty grass and broomsedge on acreages top-dressed with superphosphate. An increased growth of legumes builds up the soil, and when grazing other crops follow in rotation Demand for feed concentrates for stock tends to be reduced, WFA points out, during the season of the year when the carrying capacity of pasture is increased and more and better age is available on hay land. Application of superphosphate other available phosphates is on the better farming practices for assistance is available to farmers by the Agricultural Adjustment Agency. Since 1936, when the program into effect, the applied tons of superphosphate, with a 20-point phosphorus base, has increased percent on soil-conserving crops according to Government reports. 121,000 tons were applied in the year of the program, compared to 1,073,304 tons in 1942. Good soil management, says WFA calls for phosphate combined with other practices such as application lime, growing of cover crops, turf under green manure, and the use legumes and grasses in rotation crops. Agronomists point out phosphorus is the element of fertility most often deficient in American soil. Former Resident Of Anaheim Passes Mrs. Sarah Augusta Brooks, 90 years of age, a former resident of Anaheim from 1933 to 1943, passed away last Monday evening at her home in Fullerton. While living here she made her home with two daughters, Mrs. Minnie Dohn and Miss Jesse Brooks. Mrs. M. N. Pope of Berwyn, Md., is another daughter surviving with a son, Lt. Col. Loren Brooks, Camp Shelby, Miss., editor of the New Orleans Times-Picayune, surviving. Another son, Harry Brooks, editor of the Great Falls, Montana, Tribune, passed away a few weeks ago. Thirteen grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren also survive. Funeral services were conducted on Friday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock at the chapel of MacAuley and Suters in Fullerton with the Rev. Thomas L. Burden, pastor of the White Temple Methodist church in Anaheim, officiating. Interment was in Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale. DAMAGED TANKS TO BE REMANUFACTURED Remanufacture of thousands of damaged tanks is a major part of a huge Army Service Forces Ordnance department reclamation program, which returns worn out or battle damaged equipment to active combat duty, the Ninth Service Command Ordnance division announced today at Fort Douglas, Utah. WAR BONDS assure the things you want after victory! Courage C. S. BENSON Barding College Arkansas ment takes his complete output; no risks to run, no selling to do. After the war it will be different: Uncertain demands, sure selling costs, competition to meet. Without tax relief he does not see how he can afford to take such risks. Government THE CASE is typi-competition. Most manufacturers believe tax revisions will come, but they fear delay. If work starts on a new tax bill after V-Day, it will be a year in the making and a serious business depression can get under way in that time Sabotage is government's second fear to remove. Many new-made Americans believe anything that injures their employer helps them. Arson, violence and vandalism should be restrained in peace-time as now. Something else business men can't wait for too long: News about government competition. The U. S. owns outright 25% of the nation's manufacturing plants and equipment. Will these be sold into private ownership, or what? If supported by taxes, such plants could make anything from foot-valves to lightning rods and leave the employees of bankrupt competitors weeping in the streets. The world's only free people must stay free. No sane baseball player would go to bat with two strikes on him, and, by the same token, America's rational business men deserve an open statement of government policy on three things: (1) taxation, (2) law-enforcement and (3) government competition. If government will clear the track, industry will come through. Dymmel Family Express Regret at Leaving Anaheim H. G. DYMMEL To the Editor of the Anaheim Gazette, Anaheim, Cal. Dear City of Anaheim: As we prepare to assume a new position at our denominational headquarters in Forest Park, Ill., we pause to count the blessings we received while residing in your midst for the past six years. These blessings have been countless. Your friendship and good will, your thoughtfulness and exquisite taste made our work at the Bethel Baptist Church and in the community a constant delight. You afforded us opportunities to share your joys and your burdens. We learned to love you and be at home with you. Your administration and your "The New Deal has built up a towering bureaucracy which today reaches into the smallest village in the country and directly affects the lives of all our citizens." "Not content to deal with major economic factors, or possibly be-cause it was not competent to deal with them, it has sought to fasten upon the individual citizen the deadening hand of bureaucratic control." "That's why it's time for a change." heim and prosper you in every way. Yours for a speedy and just peace, The Dymmel Family H. G.
